Helpful Tips

Look for a “natural bed” of soft, flat soil to set up a tent and avoid the bottom of hills or valleys.

Set up a tarp below your tent to avoid potential damage or water logging.

Designate a dry place to store firewood or brush. A small tarp or large cooler works great.

Bring a cell phone for any emergencies. You can always turn it off until you need it.

Store food away in a car or hang it in a tree not in a tent. Animals get hungry, too.
